There is a range of activities that you can participate in here at Walden. From giving a hand to those toiling on the farms to finding a solitary nook with your favorite book. Go hiking amidst the forest trails or find shapes in the clouded skies while laying around on the hammock or just dig your toes into the soft, wet soil and smear your hands with the brown of the land.Β Explore the art of pottery and woodworking with our local expert. Make your own natural mixers as the ones we provide in your private bathroom or just doing nothing and experience the calm on our farm.
Walden living offers more than just a place to stay – it’s an experience. Immerse yourself in farm-to-table organic food, interact with local farmers and artisans, and witness stunning sunsets and sunrises. Here, we believe in the beauty of nature’s bounty by implementing processes to achieve permaculture.
We aim to maintain a sustainable agroecosystem based on local resources that can thrive on an organic management system.
Walden invites seekers, explorers and wanderers who want to slow down, breathe deep and embrace peace. In this rustic refuge, we have sowed the seeds of conscious indulgence combined with simple living. Come along and immerse in an experiential stay at our family-run natureβs haven.

Welcome to Walden Living, a one-of-a-kind experiential farm stay property nestled at the foothills of the Himalayas in Punjab bordering Himachal Pradesh and just an hourβs drive from Chandigarh. At Walden Living, we pride ourselves on our minimal sustainable interior and architecture, which you will find throughout the property. Our key mantra is to pause, reflect, and reset. We encourage our guests to take a break from their hectic lives, relax, and unwind while getting in sync with nature with various activities like watching the sunset, taking afternoon naps, enjoying evening teas, jungle walks and stargazing.

We recharge the surrounding groundwater level through rainwater harvesting combined with rain chains, swales and ponds. Every small detail is kept in mind to prevent polluting the area as much as possible. We do this by using the waste generated in the kitchen and agricultural land to feed the farm animals, make manure or other recycling activities.
The farm, itself, is our crown jewel. It is the pride of the community that fosters the growth of the produce that fills every plate for every meal we have. As practitioners of permaculture, one of the most natural and sustainable form of farming, we use the landscape to our advantage. The farm works in sync with nature. The poultry gives us eggs and meat also eats and rids us of the pests from the vegetable gardens. Bees take nectar from the flowers of various fruits and crops to increase our yield by pollination and give us honey.
Take our local produce with you and help our land to thrive and thereby thriving yourself. Our honey, oils, facial cream or body wash is not only goof for our environment but for your well being. We are hoping to give you some of our peacefulness and awareness to give on to others and every time you feel you need a recharge come back to us and settle into the magic of our sustainable farm.
Our property showcases different crops, plants, and fruits that flourish throughout the year, providing an immersive experience of organic farming. You’ll come across a variety of flora and fauna during your stay and even enjoy bird watching, with different species of birds visiting our property at different times of the day.
